Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre criticized the prime minister on April 1 for announcing a $1 billion national school food program on the same day the federal carbon tax was raised.
“After eight years of promising that he'd helped the middle class, well now by his own admission, one in four kids don’t get enough food. I find it ironic that he is promising a federal food bureaucracy in Ottawa the same day as he raises taxes on food,” Mr. Poilievre said during a press conference in Nanaimo, B.C., on April 1.
